U. of Maine campus experiments with small-scale, high-touch open courses | Inside Higher Ed - 0 views

"The buzz surrounding massive open online courses, or MOOCs, has grown nearly as massive as the courses themselves.

But amid all this MOOC mania, the University of Maine at Presque Isle is attempting a different kind of free online offering - one that would swap the scale of a MOOC for the high-touch experience of a conventional online course. Michael Sonntag, the provost, calls it a "LOOC": a little open online course."

Nice short video introducing ways to make use of the discussion forums in an LMS like BBLearn. There appears to be other useful videos in this series. Thanks to Mark Morton at Waterloo for pointing this out.
